Eldred World War II Museum

Reviewed By epapera - Roswell, United States

I have been to the WWII museum in New Orleans a few times. It is great however, the Eldred WWII museum was a hidden gem, thanks to this website. I happened to google WWII museums near Buffalo, NY and found this one. It was amazing. So much detail and work has gone into every speck into that place. I thought the dioramas of Omaha Beach and the Battle of Kursk were amazing. They keep a great collection and the employees know everything about that museum as well as the history of Eldred as a munitions plant during the war! I work with Holocaust survivors and their portion of the museum was cornered off from those that may not wish to view the photos in there. It was tastefully done and very educational. The best thing is that they have so many cool things for kids. They didn't get bored or whine about not having anything to do. I would go back here in a heartbeat!

We stopped by the winery for an impromptu tasting. The wine was delicious, but the staff was also friendly and knowledgeable, which made the experience even better. The little store is adorable too!

We are committed to our patrons and employees’ health and safety. Therefore, if the store is at capacity, we will ask that you remain outside until we are permitted to allow safe entry.

This place was on my bucket list. So after taking my son to his hockey game 2 hours from our house in Bradford. I said we are stopping at Zippo. He didn't seem to thrilled. But he seemed to enjoy it. Loved the Zippo American flag. Great gift shop. Was neat to learn the history. Friendly staff.

Kinzua Bridge State Park

The 339-acre Kinzua Bridge State Park, is the home of the reinvented Kinzua Viaduct. The Viaduct, once the longest and tallest railroad structure at 2,053 feet long and 301 feet high, was partially destroyed by a tornado in 2003. Reinvented as a pedestrian walkway during 2011, visitors can stroll 624 feet out on the remaining support towers, peer miles out into the Kinzua Gorge, and gaze down through the partial glass platform at the end of the walkway. The Kinzua Bridge State Park Visitor Center and Park Office features great views, self-guiding exhibits, and information about the surrounding area.

Learn about the history and culture of the area. Get some exercise. Assess your fitness level before you venture out on the hiking trails. And, bring water and snacks with you. If you enjoy taking pictures, make sure that your camera battery is charged.

I absolutely love the Allegheny National Forest. We stopped at the Kinzua Visitor Center but it was closed due to Covid. Amazing photographs from this area overlooking the river and forests. Enough parking too. Worth the stop on the way to or from the dam.

Reviewed By Traventurz - Pittsburgh, United States

The alcohol here is really excellent, and is comparable to very high end brands. We asked about the informal tour and got to hear all about how they make their rum, vodka, and gin from one of the owners. Lots of fun! We got to try most of their products and were very impressed with all of them— walked away with three bottles more than we planned on ????. Great staff and owners. Hope to be back!!

Awesome wine! We tasted their wine at the split rock wine festival and had to make a special trip here, worth the five hour drive. They have a variety of wine but definitely lean more towards the sweet side of the wine. I highly recommend Bigfoot Shadows if you like concord wine. The staff was friendly and informative. Very cute little shop that shared the tasting room too.
